RIP, Tom Tresh

Came aboard near the end of the Yankees' '60s dynasty, a second-generation major leaguer:

That was Kubek. Tresh got his chance, though, when Kubek was called to military service in '62. Long before there were name-and-number shirts at retail my dad had us wearing replica Yankees jerseys. My older brother was No. 7, I was No. 8, my next brother was No. 9 and my youngest brother, who was born in 1961, got Tresh's No. 15.
